AMS/SMT 2008 Travel Information

If you have questions, please contact the AMS office.

The AMS negotiates a contract for meeting space and hotel room-nights with hotels four or five years before each Annual Meeting. We agree to occupy a certain number of rooms and contract with hotels for this, in exchange for their agreement to provide hotel rooms as well as meeting space and services. We are liable to pay significant supplemental fees if we do not hold up our end of the agreement; thus your decision to stay at the conference hotels, in addition to enabling convenient access to the Annual Meeting, helps to ensure that we meet our contractual obligations.
